Seen this on ebay, and wondered if anybody has took the plunge and had one. Looks like a self solder job???? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181817566823?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Not for a t5 but I did for a Clio Williams once which went horribly wrong. Personally I would avoid and get it done by somebody who does it for you for not much more money like..... Well I prefer not to say I case I upset anybody
Just...... No!
I'd want a lot information on it than it gives in the ebay ad and as the old saying goes "if it seems too cheap to be true, it probably is"
No,No and No Mighty Car Mods did a myth busters on these things and had them analysed at best it will be a resistor built into a chip that will reduce the signal strength of some readings there for providing the ecu with false readings to counteract its safety cut off mechanisms built into the ecu at worst it could cause damage to your ecu or other components, save the money and get a proper map later down the line.
Wee chav went past me this morning revving his crapped out Civic 1.4 for no good reason. You could see the fumes from the exhaust and the air was thick with it for a good minute after. First thing I thought was "that'll be an eBay resistor mod then". EDIT: Apologies that this has very little to do with the question :troutslap:
OK I get it. NOOOOOOOOOOO!
Shem seems to be getting a lot of mentions in various places for re-maps, worth considering and the price looks good for stage 1/2 from what I saw of his ebay ad
I have the same chip. I've bought it on eBay. With modifications I got 317hp and 489nm on it. Everything works perfect. I'm satisfied.

Maybe he's an Ebay chip selling bot... especially as he only joined the forum yesterday and posted this :o
[QUOTE=kmb;780413]Maybe he's an Ebay chip selling bot... especially as he only joined the forum yesterday and posted this :o[/QUOTE] that was my first thoughts hence the request for some evidence...."pictures or it didn't happen"....but the numbers mentioned and user name match the Belarusian car I linked above.

[QUOTE=twr;780417]I will eat my own hat hahaha[/QUOTE] it does seem high for a 15G...
[QUOTE=jamesy12345;780418]it does seem high for a 15G...[/QUOTE] Yes, the link is right on my car. There you can find the whole info about the car and the process of tuning. Also there are some videos and pictures of Dyno
I'm I right in think that it made 317bhp at 3500 rpm ?

Everyone in Belarus knows who this is: [ATTACH=CONFIG]29392[/ATTACH] If you tell me who is this guy, then you have passed the test and I for one will believe you :)
[QUOTE=dant5r;780420]I'm I right in think that it made 317bhp at 3500 rpm ?[/QUOTE] The graph in the link below says 317 at 5185 https://www.drive2.ru/r/volvo/878736/logbook/
I was looking at the top red which must be torque.
What did the car do on the quater mile against the Saab
I had that exact chip previously, made similar numbers to rica, about 280 bhp on my 94 t5 manual, afrs all good, not much below 3.8k but nice above that, ok for a cheapy
I know from speaking with rob the 304/310 remaps (which he has copies of as data / settings) are just tweaking the fuel and ignition timing and very little else. I would say it's risky buying one, but with the 940s we buy loose chips and fit them from eBay / forum users. It could be possible that the seller is such a person as a forum user and flashes them on, but obviously that's difficult to tell via Ebay.
I'd suggest getting Oblark to sort a nice progressively mapped M4.4 ECU, works nicely on my T5.
I've seen a 16t make that sort of power and then it died so for a 15g to make 317 bhp ............. The rica maps are just a fuel, ignition and boost increases within the safe boundaries of the standard map.

Of course, the lifetime of the turbo became less, but not so catastrophic. Such power was gained due to modifications. I'm pretty sure that I can gain a bit more by installing green injectors, raising boost to 1.5bar in peak, tuning the program of the chip and tuning the position of NA cams. But there is no need to do that, because you will bent rods. A month ago I've bent rods on my engine. I raised the boost to maximum 1.7-1.8bar and the car produced around 330-335hp, but after several drag races the engine started to knock. Than I lowered the boost to 1.4 in peak and made a dyno and several drag races with saab. So 317hp was dynode with bent rods:) Now I'm planning to install H-beam rods, K24 turbo. Yesterday the quaife was installed in gearbox.

Thanx, I cant wait till I'll install k24 turbo. I'm planning to have about 360-370 hp, with quaife it should run pretty nice.

No, didn't do anything with the chip. That's why I'm saying that I can gain a bit more power.
[QUOTE=Buddy-T5;780509]No, didn't do anything with the chip. That's why I'm saying that I can gain a bit more power.[/QUOTE] Ooooohh. The standard ecu is mapped for the standard MAF which gives at 4.9v 826 kg/hr with standard injectors which are 315cc with a injector constant of 1.0 So if you are running a 960 MAF which gives at 4.9v 1107 kg/hr and the 350cc injectors having a injecctor constant of 0.906 I'm running a M4.4 ecu mapped for 3.25" MAF which at 4.9v gives 1603 kg/hr and greens which are 440cc with a constant of 0.7735 I had to run drive my car 7 miles when I had a M4.4 ecu problem with a RICA 304 ecu and it idled rough and drove very lean. So if you haven't mapped for the larger maf and injectors I would question the 317 bhp reading.
Well, the aim was to get 300hp+ on stock turbo and it was achieved. Next step in tuning will be k24 turbo with m4.4 mapped properly.
